The answer for many might be \u003Cstrong>the equity you have in your house.\u003C\u002Fstrong>\r\n\r\nAccording to the latest \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.corelogic.com\u002Fdownloadable-docs\u002Fequity-report-q1-2017-20170608.pdf\">\u003Cem>Equity Report\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fa> from \u003Cem>CoreLogic\u003C\u002Fem>, the average homeowner in the United States gained $14,000 in equity over the course of the last year. On the West Coast, homeowners gained twice that amount, with homeowners in Washington gaining an average of $38,000!\r\n\r\nDo you know how much your home has appreciated over the last year?\r\n\r\nMany homeowners would be able to easily sell their current house and use the profits from that sale to purchase a condo nearby in order to continue working while eliminating some of the daily maintenance of owning a house (ex. lawn care, snow removal).\r\n\r\nWith the additional cash gained from the sale of the home, you could put down a sizeable down payment on a vacation\u002Fretirement home in the location that you would like to eventually retire to. While you will not yet be able to live there full-time, you can rent out your property during peak vacation times and pay off your mortgage faster.\r\n\r\nPurchasing your retirement home now will allow you to take full advantage of today’s seller’s market, allow you to cash in on the equity you have already built, and take comfort in knowing that a plan is in place for a smooth transition into retirement.\r\n\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>Bottom Line\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\r\nThere are many reasons to relocate in retirement, including a change in climate, proximity to family & grandchildren, and so much more.
